Pearl- 820W Hihat stand

I recently found this gem at a local music store, and fell in love. Now that I have it, I'm even more in love with it. This thing is great. Theres alot of features too, but the Spring tension adjustment is what really caught my eye, adjusted by a black plastic knob. I love being able to decide how tight the spring is and thus how quick your hihats open.
The stand comes with a chain direct drive, and a swiveling footboard, so all of you double bass players need not worry. The stop lock on the main shaft, for height adjustment, is nice too. The stand generally feels very sturdy, and on my wood floor, didnt budge at all, even during my vigorous testing. The legs fold up nice, and if you mess with it enough, you can lock the footboard flat into the legs. This stand can hold you hihats exactly level, as I was surprised to see, but also allows almost any other angle you want.
All around, I think this is a very professional piece of equipment, and would definately recommend this stand to anyone looking for a excellent, and low priced stand. (Price: 80$USD roughly)
